Episode 549: Christian Maturity Is a Journey, Not a Destination
Update: 2025-11-26
Description
How can we submit to and enjoy the slow process of sanctification?
It’s not uncommon for Christians to feel discouraged by their progress (or lack thereof) in sanctification. But what if our vision of maturity focused less on the destination and more on slow growth over time? In this episode, we use the Sermon on the Mount to consider Christian discipleship and maturity. We discuss Jesus's image of discipleship as a path or road, how to handle discouragement along the way, and the joy of not taking ourselves too seriously.
